My apologies, getting caught up in so many updates following as well looking forward to Nougat, cleaner UI in general is what i'm looking forward to. Especially in the notifications, more "stock android" and less of a Huawei look.

Appreciate you pushing out updates, doesn't matter how slow they are, just take your time until Nougat comes out, I believe it will be the best addition to the Mate 8. :)

EDIT - Once Nougat arrives please leave the camera in if you do Twisted 5.0 version.

Seems to be one of the only things people prefer over the google apps is the camera, I myself love both and like to have both installed !
[Mate 8 Android Development] Ephemera:
Hmm then maybe you should vote yes on the polls.
[Mate 8 Android Development] kjames2001:
Hi Ephemera, I see on huawei's forum that they are starting to beta test EMUI 5.0 nougat. So I don't think they will release any more updates before the official nougat ROM.
[Mate 8 Android Development] jbmc83:
i wouldnt bet on that. long after the first emui 4.1 beta firmwares were released they still published emui 4.0 firmwares. as long as nougat is in beta they will most likely continue to release B3xx and even B2xx firmwares, especially since not all regions are on the same page, development-wise

[Mate 8 Android Development] Ephemera:
And that's exactly what they're doing wrong with software. If anything they should just have 2 variants, one for their Chinese users who can understand what any of that **** means, and one for international users with Chinese bloat removed and play store installed. The way it is now, they're putting their time and efforts into different regions to provide the same bug fixes. Unity is key in my opinion.

Looking at the polls it safe to say the next update will REPLACE google camera with stock. When's the next update? Whenever huawei releases the next update after B386.
[Mate 8 Android Development] jbmc83:
messy indeed! they should just use the chinese versions as a blueprint to base the international firmwares on. after all, that how you and the other mate 8 devs do it ;)

hi

i have problem after update file by TWRP

Boot into recovery and flash update.zip BUT DO NOT REBOOT

and things went wrong.

Now the phone not booting and in fastboot it shows remote command not allowed. It shows FRP locked.

Now I have the BL code but how to unlock the FRP as I am unable to boot into the ROM even after installing the update from stock recovery. The installation of update completes and after reboot, shows the huawei logo on the first screen and back again many times to county and lang page!!!.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ChasingShadows:
The UPDATE.ZIP needs to be installed with the dload method not via TWRP ... see the sentence in red on the OP ...
[Mate 8 Android Development] BrownyDroid:
Thankyou my dear friend!

I think its safe to say many Mate 8 owners rely on you for their custom roms, im glad to see you so happy to work on this.

Any preferred way I can donate to you in the future? Been running your **** since its first been out, loved it since and want to give back. :)
[Mate 8 Android Development] Ephemera:
A thanks is a donation in my eyes. You've done your part here.
[Mate 8 Android Development] jbmc83:
waaay too modest our dev here :)

Sent from my Huawei Mate 8 NXT-AL10
[Mate 8 Android Development] Ephemera:
Wouldn't say it's modesty, as I accept donations unlike some devs who refuse to accept anything. Those devs are da real MVP. It's just I guess a see a sense of shame to ask for donations.

Hi Bro, Good work....

Can you make for mate 7 as you made like this mate 8 ?.............Thank You!
[Mate 8 Android Development] ronin2011:
is there a problem with finger print sensors on b380 i am asking because i am still running b352 twisted mate and its running fine so is it worth upgrading or should i stay with the b352?

also is the stock huawei camera going to be included in twisted mate anytime soon, because the google camera kinda sucks :)
[Mate 8 Android Development] Ephemera:
I do not own a mate 7. Therefore I won't be able to make it.

I've been actively checking to see if they release an ota but nothing. I wanted to release b386 today but my computer quit on me. I'm ordering a part next week when I get paid, hoping it's the right one as I don't think my wallet can handle any major damage. :fingers-crossed:
[Mate 8 Android Development] gxxxs:
Thanks Ephemera for your hard work. When B386 is released, do I need to first revert back to stock B380 in order for the fingerprint to work (I hope not)? Thanks.
[Mate 8 Android Development] rowihel2012:
fantastic jop my friend :D

I have problem with last update

When open camera app the device freez and camera wont open

Need to wipe camera app cash and data always

I will try clean flash rom

---------- Post added at 04:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 AM ----------

Same problem camera app always freezing the phone and not working

---------- Post added at 04:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 AM ----------

It is a problem in b156
[Mate 8 Android Development] Dioky:
Well, over here some problems too:

I was on unrooted stock b156 without any problems at all, super fast, smooth and reliable.

Now on Simply Google b156:

Apps freezing and FC-ing (apps, not phone) from time to time

Screen brightness not correct (very low) when powering on the phone, but I think that is related to the TWRP v3 as this problem showed up immediately in the TWRP flashing sequence.

So still trying to figure out where the problems come from. The rooting, TWRP or the ROM.

As described in that thread, I did encounter some problems during formatting / data wipe while rooting and Italian Knife not giving my any help/clues as to how to correctly apply. So finally did the flashing manually with fastboot.

I will try a clean re-flash and see what happens.

[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
There are instances of apps freezing mainly Web browsers. I'll look into this and hopefully update to the B165 build. I've had the flu the last few days so I've been out of it.
[Mate 8 Android Development] jbmc83:
much appreciated as always [MENTION=1397125]ajsmsg78[/MENTION] :) also, get well soon!
[Mate 8 Android Development] Dioky:
Hi,

Hope you'll get well soon!

To me it seems as there are probably a couple of problems:

1. with the formatting in TWRP 3.0:

I've been flashing my M8 quite a few times and every time I do a [Format Data] all kind of problems appear especially with volumes that cannot be mounted and that I only can repair by reflashing the decripted boot.img for b156 to be found elswhere in this M8 forum.

2. the app freezing: of which I have a hunch that it might be due to the multi window option that doens't behave well

3. the call direct widgets: that originate from the Huawei contacts app, don't work. They return error 'permission denied' when clicked upon. Which suggests that there is some permissions problem in Settings. I have not been able to determine where / what though.
[Mate 8 Android Development] rowihel2012:
I hope you fix the camera app freez problem
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Has anyone tried flashing with the 2.8.7.0 Eng TWRP and not the 3.0? I'm trying to rule out whatever I can to fix the bugs.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Simply Google based off International B162 is in testing. So far it's bug free but I need to test it more before release.
[Mate 8 Android Development] lukemo:
If you want some help to test no problem, thanks a lot for your work.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
New build in OP, based off of B162 International. Please test and let me know.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Thanks. New build up in the OP.
[Mate 8 Android Development] lukemo:
Sorry but it doesn't boot...coming from b152 on AL-10, used acer73 TWRP last version.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
It boots for me using my English TWRP . Make sure you flash SuperSU after the ROM before you boot.
[Mate 8 Android Development] lukemo:
You're right...it works with your twrp and flashing supersu. Now I start testing.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
The themes issue is still there but let me know if everything else checks out ok.
[Mate 8 Android Development] lukemo:
Just a question...is it possible to use Huawei launcher/ home?
[Mate 8 Android Development] chris85e:
if not wrong. flash stock b386. then follow as per op instructions for b380
[Mate 8 Android Development] Bassiette:
Can u add nougat 7.1 with Google assistant and pixel launcher thank you and keep the same camera app like mate 9
[Mate 8 Android Development] kazona:
There is no need to flash stock rom if you've already gone through it, I believe.
[Mate 8 Android Development] BrownyDroid:
You can get google assistant with Xposed for now through Assistant Enabler and you can download an APK for pixel launcher for now if you want them, im not sure how long it will be until we get a Nougat rom with any kind of custom aspects and stable TWRP etc.

For now, i think its best off sticking with Marshmallow sadly my friend

We are all patiently awaiting Nougat on here :)

[Mate 8 Android Development] Ephemera:
Pushed out an update based on Kang B386v2. Link in OP. Changelog in second post. A thanks is always appreciated.

Also fingerprint issue SEEMS to be resolved. If it hasn't you'd have to refer to the fingerprint fix post, link in OP.
[Mate 8 Android Development] basimzanaty:
thanks a lot....
[Mate 8 Android Development] basimzanaty:
Okay....ROM has been tested....fingerprints work fine....no need to install stock....Thanks again [MENTION=5674459]Ephemera[/MENTION]
[Mate 8 Android Development] basimzanaty:
The only solution that works....

1- Use Root Explorer

2- copy your theme file ending in ". hwt" to root /system / themes

3- in the folder, you find icons file, don't touch.

4- Long press on the "hwt" file you copied to the folder and go to permissions

5- tick all three "read squares"

6- tick the first "write square" only

7- leave all others unticked

8- Now you can see the information of the file like that "rw-r--r--"

9- Nothing else... go to themes... choose" magazine" first... then apply any other theme and finally reboot.

by the way, Don't copy themes to any other folder like "HWThemes" just the folder mentioned above
[Mate 8 Android Development] kazona:
Two questions and this will be a keeper:

1- does the ultra battery mode feature works? As it was broken in the previous build.

2- Can we flash the stock camera app now?
[Mate 8 Android Development] chris85e:
1st question I don't know.

2nd question. this latest b386 uses stock camera
[Mate 8 Android Development] kazona:
So the stock camera app is there insted of google's app.Thank you.

Still waiting for my second question to be answerd.
[Mate 8 Android Development] hamadazh:

[Mate 8 Android Development] kazona:
Mee too. But I tried the last build and it was broken. So I thought I should ask before going back as this one is pretty good.
[Mate 8 Android Development] basimzanaty:
I installed the ROM after being on KangVip....so I made a full format and wiped all data ...then I installed Twisted b386 ....for me ....Fingerprints work without any problem and also I suffered some issues with Kang tools in KangVip b386 but with that ROM ...All working ...;)
[Mate 8 Android Development] tk_venkatesh:
Ultra power not working...

I tried ultra power mode after reading your post... Yes you are right it's not working in this version too but not a big deal for me ...
[Mate 8 Android Development] kazona:
It's really helpful if you're, let's say... traveling or going out or just trying to save power when you won't use it but you're waiting for a call or expecting one as anyone could call you anytime, you know.

In the end, it won't effect anything if it's present. So why take it out?

I really appreciate it when someone asks nicely and doesn't demand. I've been lurking the forums and it seemed as if the demand for the ROM simply didn't exist anymore. I'll try to push out an update ASAP. I still have my studies and other projects with 2 jobs so my time is very limited.

I would really appreciate some help if anyone can. I'm having this low light camera crash even though its listed a fixed. I was on stock L29 B320 then unlocked bootloader and installed this ROM with TWRP 3.0.2 after formatting data, am I missing something?
[Mate 8 Android Development] filosoff74:
Hi, one question, this firmware is better or worse holds the battery?
[Mate 8 Android Development] k4211220:
Not very true! It is because xposed framework is not implemented into android 7.0 yet.

Also it is wrong to think demand does not exist because people check the update of the title (Which is 11/25/16)

There is a lot of demand, but you just do not know about it.

Saying this not because I just want the rom; it is just my personal opinion.
